CHAPTER 118

"Since I work for you and have made a very great enemy with Wu Bai for you," she laid her emphasis flat on the last two words.

"I suppose telling you is important."

"Yeah." He too got into a proper sitting position and readied himself for the tale.

"With meeting him came the offer of working for his company. And then I recall presenting my designs and he would be happy about it but would say, they already had a top designer. She was the image of the company."

His brows creased at the reasoning behind such words.

"I know. It sounded stupid yeah I know and then Beatrice in all her glory days would take my designs and make the necessary adjustments to it."

This time he arched his brows up in disbelief. "You said?"

"Yeah, she picked a style or two, merged them, added hers and recreate. Sometimes it was mainly my design but Wu Bai would always say, whoever designed it is not the problem but the fact that the company is benefiting."

"Andromeda, and you listened to such?"

"Well, I was in love with him then, we were already dating by now. And he made this statement. We are getting married. My company is your company. What does it matter?"

Liu Xueyi did sigh this time around. How naïve could she have gotten over the years?

"I know I was stupid. I just let it go not minding the lack of fame and anything all because I loved him. I have always been stupid when it came to loving men I guess."

"Always?"

She felt something knock at the back of her brain when he picked singly on that word, 'always.'

"Well, as you said, you wished to know of my life from when I entered the country and that included dating Wu Bai stupidly for five years of my life."

"Fine. What happened that led to your break up with him and also that video?"

"I hoped you would skip that."

"No. I think I deserve to know. Company image and all, I need to protect you." Her eyes widened a bit at his words, letting her jaw drop in a feigned shock.

"Do not mind me. You know what I meant by that. I want to be able to protect you and yes it may not concern me, but I want to know, Andy."

She heaved out a sigh and shook her head. She couldn't hide from him could she?"

"At least, you do not hate me so."

"Well, I did say nothing would make me ever hate you."

"Even if that Video was true?"

"Huh, it is true."

Instantly Andromeda picked up a throw pillow and hit him in the head with it.

"Hey, I didn't lie, did I?"

She could not answer. As much as she wished to deny it with him, a part of her couldn't do anything and just stared at him.

"Come here. I told you, I am not mad at you."

"And the company? Everyone?"

"That is their cup of tea. I would remedy it all by tomorrow. You have nothing to fear about. Okay?"

"But how?"

"Shh…" he leaned in, placing his index finger on her lips to silence her completely.

"Rather than worrying, tell me what I want to know."

"Okay."

A soft smile lit up her face and she readied herself for the worst night, yet the best night of her life so far.

"It was the eve of my wedding. We had a bachelorette party and…"

"Let me guess," he interjected. "You drank too much."

"Not so much. Little but yes I drank and I was drugged."

"I see."

"Then the set-up. Wu Bai was going to have his way with me but stopped when Beatrice came in. I was barely out but I could hear them. And that was when I heard it all. The conspiracy that changed my heart and personality."

"Okay and the other guy? I mean if Wu Bai left, then the person you…"

"A stranger. I do not know much of what happened but he came in looking... I don't know really."

"You sure?"

"Yes. All I know was he came and opened the door, I opened it as well and we fell on each other. What happened after that was all a blur."

"But this showed more than that. You were enjoying yourself."

"Are you rubbing it in, Xueyi?" She scrolled at him.

Swiftly, Liu Xueyi lifted up his hands in resignation while letting out a muffled chuckle.

"Xueyi. Fine no more story."

"Okay, okay. I am sorry. I just… You are beautiful even when you are angry."

Andromeda did not know whether or not he was intentionally doing it to escape her wrath or not but whatever it was, she was happy he was trying to make her happy.

"Things spiralled after that at least the video proved it. It is just that I can barely recall what happened after he went in…"

She took a deep pause and dropped her head down completely.

"Went in where?" Liu Xueyi asked. As much as he knew what it was, he just wanted to know more from her and to what extent she recalled him.

"It is nothing. Anyways, I woke up without any memory after that."

"I am sorry for what happened to you, Andromeda."

"It's okay." She blinked back the tears that threatened to spill and lifted her head but avoided his gaze the most.

"It isn't your fault or anybody else's. It is just that I wish to know what happened and to know the face and name of the guy. I want to know if he was working for Wu Bai or if he was a victim."

"Hmm."

"Yes. Because if he is working for Wu Bai, it would be a link to use and hopefully get him on my side or I would sue him and make him rat Wu bai out for his cunningness."

"The more she spoke, the more Liu Xueyi took note of the fact that he may not really voice out the truth at this point.

"Because I know it wasn't the guy who videoed, else he would have blackmailed me since and not wait till now to just destroy my name."

"What if the guy was just a victim in all of this and he was not connected to Wu Bai?"

"That is one scenario but what if he was and Wu Bai sent him since he was busy screwing his top designer?!"

Her voice raised at the last part. It was obvious she was still mad about it all. It was more than just the video r anything.

​ It was her dignity that was gone.

"Hey, hey, hey. Calm down. Please. Relax."

"I am…"

"You are not Andy. Okay, let me ask you this question."

"Ask." She breathed out and looked him in the eye, wanting to prove what she meant.

"Do you hate the guy who did it? Whether sent or not?"

"The honest truth is that I do not know. If he was a victim, I do not hate him but why did he come to my room?"

Her question did hit home, but he pretended still.

"On the other hand, if he was sent, then yes and no. Yes, he prevented that scum from having me and no because he had me still. So that is my answer."
